MASTERPLAN – LJUBLJANA, SLOVENIA

Competition 2008 – 1st Prize

Ljubljana has a unique historic opportunity to seize the benefits of national independence, EU membership and strong economic development and to define the role and identity of a capital in the 21st century. This project proposes a process of phased urban renovation supported by an improved spatial layout and the implementation of new multimodal, sustainable infrastructure. At the area’s heart is a triangular central park of 5.9 ha. On its north side a new boulevard transverses the entire site. It is the infrastructural backbone and main organizing element of the redevelopment area and connects it to the central station and the city center. The proposal is based on two different urban patterns and their associated functions: the extension of the city fabric with the flexible program mix of its main typology the perimeter block; and the extension of the BTC area with its generous spaces, large volumes and shorter building life cycles with high commercial returns.
